The FDR products do not use started tasks to perform their functions.  Rather 
one creates a batch job(s) to perform a certain function, i.e. free space 
release, migration, incremental backup, and full volume backup.  One could 
split a particular function(space release, migration, backup)  into multiple 
jobs based on CU, SMS pools, etc..
Plus the batch jobs can be scheduled to run and can be run on demand.

Dear folks;

I'm using DFDSS+HSM+RMM from IBM but I know that Innovation equivalent
products (FDR and FDRABR) are better - performance wise that HSM,
particulary at dataset level (this information is for the performance data
published by Innovation).

Sometime ago I asked if FDRABR can work in plex mode (ala HSM) where you
can have Master Address Space and Promote Address Space and one will take
over the other if there is a failure. I didn't receive any answer but I
want to know if this is possible. Actually you can have several HSM dump
tasks per dump class beside the master HSM address space.

For us, the High Availability issue is becoming more important that
performance, in particulary for backup process.

How FDR and companion products are implemented in plex mode?. Probably
Bruce Black (DASD and I/O professor) can comment about this.

Offline postings are welcomed.

TIA,

Giovanni
